Ayuub 34
1 Oo weliba Eliihuu wuu jawaabay oo wuxuu yidhi,
Then Elihu continued:
2 Raggiinna xigmadda lahow, erayadayda maqla; Oo kuwiinna aqoonta lahow, i dhegaysta.
“You [three] men who [think that you] [SAR] are very wise, hear me; listen to what I am saying, you men who [say that you] know so much.
3 Waayo, dhegtu waxay hadalka u kala soocdaa Sida dhabxanaggu cuntada u dhedhemiyo oo kale.
When we [SYN] hear what other people [like you] say, we [RHQ] think carefully about what they say [to determine what is good and what is bad], like we [SYN] taste food [to determine what is good].
4 Aynu dooranno waxa qumman, Oo aynu dhexdeenna ka ogaanno waxa wanaagsan.
We need to decide [who is saying] what is right and to determine among ourselves what is good/best.
5 Waayo, Ayuub wuxuu yidhi, Anigu xaq baan ahay, Laakiinse Ilaah baa gartaydii ii diiday.
Job has said, ‘I am innocent, but God has refused to judge me fairly/justly.
6 Oo in kastoo aan xaq ahay haddana waxaa laygu tiriyey inaan beenlow ahay; Oo in kastoo aanan xadgudub lahayn, haddana nabarkaygu waa mid aan bogsan karin.
Even though I have always done what is right, he is lying about me. Even though I have not done what is wrong, he has caused me to suffer, and I will certainly die.’
7 Ninkee baa Ayuub la mid ah, Oo quudhsashada u cabba sida biyaha oo kale,
(Is there any person like Job, who insults others as easily as people accept a drink of water?/There is no person like Job, who insults others as easily as people accept a drink of water.) [RHQ]
8 kaasoo raaca kuwa xumaanta ka shaqeeya, Oo dadka sharka ah la socda?
He habitually associates with people who do what is evil and spends time with wicked people.
9 Waayo, isagu wuxuu yidhi, Ninna wax uma tarto Inuu Ilaah ku farxo.
He has said, ‘It is useless for people to try to please God.’
10 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed i dhegaysta, raggiinna waxgaradka ahow; Ilaah inuu xaqdarro sameeyo way ka fog tahay; Oo Ilaaha Qaadirka ahna inuu xumaan falo way ka fog tahay.
“So, you men who [claim that you] understand everything, listen to me! Almighty God would never consider doing anything that is wicked or wrong [DOU]!
11 Waayo, nin walba shuqulkiisuu ka abaalmariyaa, Oo nin kastana siduu socodkiisu ahaa ayuu ugu abaalgudaa.
He (pays back/punishes) people for what they have done; he gives them what they deserve for the way that they have conducted their lives.
12 Laakiinse hubaal Ilaah xaqdarro ma uu samayn doono, Oo Kan Qaadirka ahuna garta ma uu qalloocin doono.
Truly, Almighty God never does what is wicked; he always [LIT] does what is fair/just.
13 Bal yaa isaga ku amray inuu dhulka u taliyo? Yaase isaga dusha ka saaray dunida oo dhan?
The authority that he has to rule everything on the earth, no one [RHQ] gave it to him; no one [RHQ] put him in control of the whole world. [He has always had that authority].
14 Hadduu keligiis iska fikiri lahaa, Oo uu ruuxiisa iyo neeftiisa soo urursan lahaa,
If he would take his spirit back to himself,
15 Dadka oo dhammu waa wada baabbi'i lahaa, Oo binu-aadmiguna ciidduu ku noqon lahaa.
everyone would die [immediately], and their corpses would soon become dirt again.
16 Haddaba haddaad waxgarad tahay, waxan maqal; Oo erayadayda codkooda dhegayso.
“So, [Job], if [you say that you] understand everything, listen to what I am saying.
17 War mid xaqnimada neceb miyuu wax u talinayaa? Oo ma waxaad xukumaysaa midka xaqa ah oo xoogga badan?
God could certainly not [RHQ] govern the world if he hated doing what is fair/just. So, will you condemn God, who is righteous and powerful, [saying that what he has done is wrong]?
18 Ma waxaa boqor lagu yidhaahdaa, Shar baad tahay? Amase kuwa gobta ah, Cibaadalaawayaal baad tihiin?
He tells [some] kings that they are worthless, and he says to [some] officials that they are wicked.
19 Haddaba ma saasaad ku odhan lahayd kan aan amiirrada u eexan, Ama aan taajirka uga roonayn kan miskiinka ah? Waayo, iyagu dhammaantood waa shuqulkii gacmihiisu sameeyeen.
He does not favor rulers [more than he favors others]; he does not favor rich people more than poor people, because he created all of them.
20 Iyagu daqiiqad bay ku dhintaan, Dadku habeenbadhkiiba way gariiraan oo naftaa ka baxda, Kuwa xoogga badanuna way libdhaan iyadoo aan gacanna la saarin.
People [often] die suddenly; he strikes them at midnight and they die; he even gets rid of mighty people without the help of any humans [SYN].
21 Waayo, indhihiisu waxay fiiriyaan jidadka binu-aadmiga, Wuxuuna wada arkaa socodkiisa oo dhan.
“He sees [MTY] everything that people do; [when we walk, ] he watches every step that we take.
22 Ma jiro gudcur ama hoosdhimasho toona Oo ay kuwa xumaanta sameeyaa ku dhuuntaan.
There is no gloom or darkness [DOU] that is so dark that sinners can hide [from him] in that darkness.
23 Waayo, isagu uma baahna inuu in kale binu-aadmiga ka sii fikiro, Inuu isagu Ilaah hortiisa garsoorid u tago.
God does not [need to] set a time when we will stand in front of him in order that he may judge us. [He can judge us whenever he wants to].
24 Ragga xoogga badan ayuu u kala jejebiyaa siyaalo aan la baadhi karin, Oo meeshoodiina kuwa kaluu ka kiciyaa.
He destroys mighty people without [needing to] investigate [what they have done], and he appoints others to take their places.
25 Maxaa yeelay, isagu shuqulladooda wuu yaqaan; Oo habeennimuu afgembiyaa si ay u burburaan.
Because he [already] knows what they have done, he removes them at night and gets rid of them.
26 Sharkooda daraaddiis ayuu iyaga wax ku dhuftaa, Iyagoo dadka kale u jeedo,
Where [many] people can see it, he strikes/punishes them because of the wicked things that they have done;
27 Maxaa yeelay, lasocodkiisii way ka leexdeen, Oo waxay diideen inay jidadkiisa midnaba ka fikiraan.
he strikes them because they turned away from doing what he wanted them to do and did not pay attention to any of his commands.
28 Sidaasay qaylada masaakiinta isaga soo gaadhsiiyeen, Oo isna qaylada kuwa dhibaataysan ayuu maqlay.
They [mistreated] the poor people, with the result that those poor people cried out to God [for help], and he heard those afflicted people when they cried out [to him].
29 Haddii quruun lagu sameeyo iyo haddii qof lagu sameeyaba, Markuu nasiyo yaa belaayo kicin kara? Oo markuu wejigiisa qariyana bal yaa isaga fiirin kara?
But if God decides to do nothing [to punish wicked people], no one can criticize/condemn him. If a godless/wicked man rules a nation, a man who tricks/deceives the people,
30 Inaan cibaadalaawe boqornimada qabsan, Si uusan u jirin mid dadka shirqool u dhiga.
and if [God] hides his face [with the result that he does not see that ruler or punish him], no one will be able to prevent that ruler [from doing those things].
31 Waayo, ninna miyuu Ilaah ku yidhi, Anigu edbintii waan qaatay, oo mar dambe ninna xumayn maayo,
“Job, have you or anyone else ever said to God, ‘I have been punished [for my sins], and I will not sin any more;
32 Haddaba waxaanan u jeedin i bar, Oo haddaan xumaan sameeyeyna mar dambe u noqon maayo?
so teach/show me what [sins I have committed]; if I have done anything that is evil, I will not do it any more’?
33 Abaalgudkiisu ma wuxuu ahaan doonaa sidaad doonaysid, inaad diiddid aawadeed? Waayo, waa inaad adigu doorataa, mana aha aniga; Haddaba waxaad taqaanid ku hadal.
[Job, ] you object to what God has done to you, but do you think that he will do what you want him to do? It is you who must choose [what you say to God], not I; so tell me what you are thinking about this.
34 Nin kasta oo xigmad leh oo i maqla iyo dadka waxgaradka ahuba Waxay igu odhan doonaan,
“People who have good sense, those who are wise and who listen to what I say, will say to me,
35 Ayuub aqoonla'aan buu ku hadlaa, Oo hadalkiisana xigmadu kuma jirto.
‘Job is speaking ignorantly; what he says is nonsense.’
36 Waxaan jeclaan lahaa in Ayuub tan iyo ugudambaysta la sii imtixaamo, Maxaa yeelay, wuxuu u jawaabaa sida dadka sharka ah.
I think that Job should be taken to a court and (put on trial/judged), because he answers [us his friends] like wicked men would answer.
37 Waayo, dembigiisii wuxuu ku sii darsadaa caasinimo, Oo dhexdeenna ayuu ka sacab tuntaa, Erayadiisana wuxuu ku sii badiyaa Ilaah.
To add to the [other] sins that he has committed, he is rebelling [against God]; he shows us that he does not respect God [IDM], making long speeches [saying that God has punished him unjustly].”
